Notas do Editor

  1. Those are some of the mega trends and we see that leadership is responding. But lets take a look at the scale of the challenge. While the CEO is seeing technology as a lever for change and transformation, the CIO faces some truly daunting. The data on this chart comes from IDC. Since 2000 we have seen overall spend in IT grow by 89%, the Management of IT is growing at 235%. This is an trend that is not sustainable and one that can wreak havoc for companies if they do not respond, and respond intelligently and with a corresponding strategy.
  2. Based on open standards technologies and a broad ecosystem of industry partners, IBM has built SmartCloud technologies for every stage of cloud adoption. The value to our clients comes from the interoperability it enables within their own infrastructures. As all our cloud technology is built on top of a common open-standards based reference architecture, its gives our clients flexibility and choice in how they consume cloud technologies. With greater confidence that things will work together with a degree of portability….enabling a hybrid approach.Our cloud capabilities are organized into 3 simple areas. SmartCloud Foundation, the integrated set of cloud enablement technologies for private and hybrid Clouds. These are technologies that our customers can use to build their own private clouds. SmartCloud Services, the IBM cloud platform designed for enterprise-class service delivery with PaaS/IaaS managed services. IBM SmartCloud service delivery platform is built upon the very same SmartCloud Foundation technologies that are clients are using. And SmartCloud Solutions, our growing list of business and industry solutions on the Cloud offered as SaaS. Capabilities such as Collboration, B2B Integration, Digitial Marketing Optimization… all delivered via SaaS.
  3. We’ll talk about it next – but it’s clear that the July 8th 2013 acquisition of SoftLayer, an IBM Company, significantly expands the options that IBM can offer in managed services:SoftLayerBare metal to virtualized to address practically all applications – SoftLayer provides a continuum of servers and services that a customer can deploy right from a browser – all by themselves. Or a partner , ISV, SaaS provider can deploy this platform as the foundation for innovative applications. Private or Public, Dedicated or Shared deployment options – SoftLayer allows for mixing and matching servers and services in either a private or public configuration – dedicated or shared. Robust, reliable performance and uptime for demanding born-on-the-cloud applications – SoftLayers delvers a platform that is up to the task – of the most demanding cloud-centric born on the web application. IBM SmartCloud Enterprise+Complementing SoftLayer is SmartCloud Enterprise+ - ideal for Cloud-enabled systems of record. Fully managed ITIL compliant services delivered by IBM helps drive business value, competitive advantage, peace of mind – SmartCloud Enterprise+ gives you expert management of your cloud infrastructure and workloads. This is vital for supporting workloads that run the business. Runs production workloads, including SAP and Oracle applications – Workloads and applications like SAP and Oracle… With SmartCloud Enterprise+ you can be confidence that these applications that traditionally have run inside the data center – can now be deployed with confidence in the cloud. Hardware, hypervisor and isolation elements included – With SmartCloud Enterprise+ you get a choice of hardware – System x (486) and System P – and you get a choice of hypervisor - VMWare, and PowerVM… DevOps IBM SmartCloud Application ServicesAgile platform as a service with support for JAVA, PHP, and Mobile applicationsSuitable for wide range of enterprise applications – In addition to the IaaS, SmartCloud Services offers Devops – that deliver a platform that allows customers to build on JAVA, or PHP - building for the web or mobile.. All of that is delivered with SmartCloud Application Services on SmartCloud Enterprise. With that as the foundation – lets turn our attention to SoftLayer.
  4. On July 8th 2013 IBM closed on the acquisition of SoftLayer, an IBM Company. SoftLayer delivers a unique set of world class capabilities – that together with the technology and business expertise and experience of IBM sets IBM in a whole different class than competitors on the market today.
  5. Let’s start by introducing SoftLayer, an IBM Company. SoftLayer is one of the largest cloud infrastructure providers in the world, with more than 100,000 devices under management for 21,000 customers in 140 countries. SoftLayer operates a global footprint of 13 data centers and 17 network points-of-presence around the world, filled with servers, storage, routers, firewalls and load balancers. But the heart of this service isn’t servers or network cables. It’s a software platform that provides a complete operating system for the data center – that automates every aspect of infrastructure as a service – and that allows us to deliver the industry’s broadest and highest performing cloud platform.A brief history – SoftLayer was founded in 2005 by a team of technology and business leaders with a wealth of experience providing managed hosting and infrastructure services. Their vision was to build a new kind of on-demand hosting company, driven by software automation and sophisticated management tools – cloud computing before the term was widely used, you might say. By 2013 SoftLayer had become a global company with a management team comprised of seasoned hosting and cloud computing leaders; the market leader in Web hosting and home to more of the world’s top 100,000 sites and apps than any other provider. In July we were acquired by IBM, combining our leadership and innovation in cloud with the technology industry’s global innovation leader.

There are a couple of things that make SoftLayer a very different company from a product and philosophy standpoint, and the first, inevitably, requires a quick discussion of cloud computing from a definitional standpoint.It's tempting to dismiss "the cloud" as marketing hype – a meaningless term applied to a bewilderingly broad range of solutions – but cloud computing at the infrastructure level actually has a clear definition. Some would try and narrowly tailor that in terms of a mandatory technical reference architecture – x virtualization software on y hardware platform – but that's going too far in the other direction, and an approach generally advocated by organizations who have a vested interest in the manufacture and sale of a particular component.Our own view, and it aligns with prevailing definitions published by organizations including the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and Gartner, is that cloud infrastructure can best be defined as an operational model for the delivery of computing-as-a-service across a network in a way that provides capacity on demand from a pool of computing resources that provides significant scalability and rapid elasticity, consumption-based pricing, and self-provisioning.While the initial cloud revolution was centered on virtualized, multi-tenancy clouds, this is only one model of compute, and one that isn’t necessarily well suited to the full breadth of workloads, use cases and industries. As cloud has mainstreamed and matured, organizations are increasingly looking to take advantage of the power of consumptive, real-time computing without compromising performance, security and control. They want to choose when to use virtualization and when not, control precisely where their infrastructure is physically located and shape their infrastructure to their application, not shoehorn their app into someone else’s idea of the right platform.
  7. SoftLayer, uniquely, has designed and deployed a global, interconnected platform that meets the key operational and economic requirements of cloud infrastructure across a broad portfolio of infrastructure - dedicated and shared devices, physical and virtual servers, hourly compute instances and four-way, octo-core bare metal, along with a wealth of storage, networking and security components.Our customers can take these building blocks and deploy public cloud instances, build private clouds on their choice of virtualization stack, leverage the raw power of bare metal on demand, or combine these solutions into distributed, hybrid architectures. Build what you want, or leverage our turn-key big data and private cloud solutions to design and deploy complex, scalable infrastructure online in real time. It’s all delivered as a unified service, managed from a single pane of glass via our Web portal or mobile apps, and accessible via a powerful, full-featured API. One bill, one portal, one platform.It's a model that provides users with a greater range of choice, flexibility and control than any other cloud infrastructure solution in the industry.   
  8. So how do we do it? We operate 13 data centers around the world. We’ve augmented that core footprint with additional network points of presence in Tokyo, Hong Kong, Frankfurt, London and several locations within the United States, with the goal of delivering a sub 40 millisecond experience to our customers and their customers across as wide a footprint as possible. These network points of presence and our global private network allows customers in Tokyo to connect at one hop away from infrastructure in Singapore or San Jose, and allow customers to deploy cloud instances in Amsterdam and bare metal in Houston yet allow them to communicate with each other across the same network segment as if they were in the same rack together.
  9. Let’s talk a little more about the network – it’s perhaps the fundamental component in terms of performance, yet it’s rarely discussed in detail by hosting providers. We’ve made a significant investment at SoftLayer in building a network of networks; we think our network architecture and performance stand alone in the industry. Each physical server has five network cards. Two redundant connections to the public network, which aggregates connectivity from multiple tier 1 network providers for performance and redundancy. Two more NICs provide redundant connections to our global private network, providing secure point-to-point intra and inter data center connectivity along with access to a suite of SoftLayer services including storage platforms, DNS, security scans and OS reload services. A final network connection provides access to an out-of-band management network for access to our management platform and API. The entire network and services stack provides native support for IP version 6, ensuring that as this critical transition takes place over the next few years, you’ll be well ahead of the game. 
  10. On top of this triple network architecture we’ve deployed a highly standardized and modular compute platform. Row upon row of x86 server sits patiently waiting to be pressed into service. You can deploy virtual instances into a shared public cloud environment, build high-performance dedicated servers or provision private clouds with your choice of several different virtualization stacks. Connect virtualized and bare metal, leverage onboard storage – SAS, SATA or SSD – SAN and NAS solutions or build on top of our global Object Storage platform. Add firewalls and load balancers for security and availability. Provision everything from a robust management portal or build autoscaling functionality directly into your app via our API. Deploy physical or virtual from a unified, image-based server provisioning system, and organize your infrastructure into Virtual Racks for ease of management and communication.  You can start with a virtual server, snapshot with our Flex Images technology and instantly deploy a mirror image on a physical device – all the necessary conversion happens behind the scenes. Go the opposite direction and move from dedicated to virtual, or leverage a suite of features on bare metal – such as server cloning and image-based deployment – previously available only on a virtualized platform.
  11. The heart of the platform, and indeed the heart of SoftLayer, is automation. We automate for a number of reasons; chief among them to improve customer control and transparency, reduce human error and optimize costs and agility. The SoftLayer API provides control over more than 200 services including server acquisition, reboots and reloads, network and storage configuration, security and systems monitoring. We support REST, SOAP and XML-RPC interfaces and our online SoftLayer Development Network provides support, code samples and documentation to get you up and running quickly.
  12. In addition to the API, (and built on top of it), we’ve got a full-featured, secure Web-based portal for complete management of your infrastructure. We’ve also got mobile apps available for all the leading devices including iPhone and iPad, Android smartphones and tablets, and Windows Mobile devices.
  13. What infrastructure products and services live on SoftLayer’s on-demand global cloud platform? The simple answer is “all of them.” We built our platform for Internet scale, and when we talk about “Internet Scale,” we’re talking about supporting companies whose apps have a few thousand users one day and a few million the next. To accommodate that kind of spike in demand, we knew that every service in our portfolio had to be automated and had to work well together. To understand the big picture of what that automation looks like from a service perspective, we can break out SoftLayer’s service portfolio into a few logical segments and touch on common customer use cases as well as SoftLayer differentiators.  
  14. To meet the growing demand for high-performance big data environments, we worked with 10gen and Basho to streamline the process of building and growing high-performance MongoDB and Riak solutions built on bare metal servers with local storage, significantly outperforming commodity public clouds running the same software. In the process of building our push-button Solution Designer, we also incorporated best practices for setup and configuration to guarantee the best possible results for our customers.
  15. Finally, a quick look at our customer base will confirm that the innovators, visionaries and leaders building the next-generation of Internet scale apps are coming to SoftLayer. And this technology is deployed at scale today. Whether it is at companies like:FitBit . Internet centric companies and products like the Fitbit Tracker, a wireless-enabled wearable device that measures data such as the number of steps walked, quality of sleep, and other personal metrics. Or Bump an application created by Bump Technologies for the Apple's iOS and Google's Android operating systems, that allows two smartphone users to physically bump their phones together to transfer contact information, photos, and files to each other over the Internet. But it’s also enterpise companies.. Companies like:Repsol S.A. a Spanish multinational oil and gas company based in Madrid, Spain. It is the 15th largest petroleum refining company according to the Fortune Global 500 list,[3] employing over 40,000 people worldwide.Or LAN Airlines S.A. a group of South American Airlines based in Santiago, Chile and part of LATAM Airlines Group, Latin America's largest Airline holding.So we have internet centric innovators, and game-changing companies – who have built businesses that the world uses every day. Applications that we simply expect to be there – when we want them.. Ready to use… And there are enterprise customers who are using SoftLayer to transform their business, manage costs, drive innovation and stay ahead of the competition. You can look at the rest of these. What do they have in common?Internet ScaleInnovationA reliance on the underlying platform.

  16. We’ve talked about the high-level differentiators of our cloud computing environment, but let’s drill down into the compute resources available to SoftLayer customers. Public cloud instances are virtual server instances that live in a multitenant environment. While many of SoftLayer’s competitors use oversubscribed, commodity hardware to run their public cloud environments SoftLayer’s public cloud instances are delivered on the same enterprise-class bare metal as the rest of our service and we provide dedicated physical cores to ensure reliable, predictable performance. Local or remote storage is available. Public cloud instances have the same public/private/management network connectivity and are managed exactly like a bare metal server. Public cloud instances are considered great for quick scalability, but they aren’t the best fit for performance-intensive tasks … That’s where bare metal servers come in. A bare metal server is exactly what it sounds like: A physical server is racked and ready in our data center, and when a customer orders it, that customer has full control of that hardware … the bare metal. Automatically provision from a broad library of operating system and application templates, or install your own OS and application stack. SoftLayer offers a broad range of bare metal server options to meet each customer’s specific price and performance needs: Choice of processor(s), RAM, RAID controllers, GPUs for high performance computing, and SATA/SCSI/SATA hard drive options allow customers to customize the server’s hardware to specifically meet his or her application’s needs. Off-box storage options include a suite of SAN and NAS products, and a global Object Storage platform with CDN integration that gives you a highly scalable, cost-effective solution for storing large amounts of static data. How does this all work together? Customers often deploy public cloud instances for web servers while leveraging powerful bare metal servers for database servers, taking advantage of the strengths of each while managing both as an integrated infrastructure. To help streamline the provisioning of the most requested multi-server deployments like private clouds and big data environments, we’ve worked with our partners to build specialized solution sets. Customers who want the scalability of a cloud environment with the control and isolation of a single-tenant infrastructure choose to create their own private cloud environments on SoftLayer. We support multiple virtualization platforms including VMware, HyperV and XenServer, and we’ve worked with Citrix to create a turnkey solution for CloudPlatform allowing for complete private cloud environments to be provisioned and deployed from an easy-to-use Web interface.
  17. While our compute and storage resources are our most visible offerings, our extensive suite of network- and security-related services are often just as indispensable for our customers. Several firewall and load balancer options are available to be provisioned and configured quickly by our automated platform, and our CDN allows customers to distribute their content even closer to their end users around the world. We also provide application acceleration, DNS services, IDS protection and assessment, SSL certificate management, and protection against viruses and malware.
  18. The last segment of our service portfolio that we’ll cover is Platform Management. If a customer needs additional help or expertise when it comes to their systems administration, they can enlist our managed hosting team of experts to help them configure, tweak and maintain their environment. Unlike our competitors, we don’t believe managed hosting should be an “all or nothing” decision, so our customers can pick and choose which pieces of their infrastructure they want help with, and they aren’t committed to any long-term contracts. To further empower our customers, we offer advanced monitoring packages and a complete library of OS, database, virtualization and administration software deployable on-demand and by subscription.  Because public cloud instances and bare metal servers appear identical in our system, we believed they should be identical to our customers as well. In the past, a customer had an “either, or” decision when it came to choosing a virtual or bare metal base for a given server, so we developed a technology called Flex Images to allow users the ability to take a snapshot of a cloud server and deploy it on bare metal (or vice versa). The final tool you see here is one that we added to our platform specifically for developers. Message Queue is a message and notification service for intra-application and inter-system communications. When an application has several pieces sending data between each other, those exchanges can often be inefficient. Message Queue makes it easy for developers to orchestrate those exchanges better.
